One of Ms Leifer's alleged victims, Dassi Erlich, posted on her Facebook page that "Malka Leifer is to remain arrested and has not been granted bail" after the Supreme Court accepted the appeal.

"The Supreme Court's ruling to keep Malka Leifer detained until the conclusion of extradition, is a positive step forward," she said in a media statement.

"It addresses the concern of many that she is a flight risk and a possible danger to others. This ruling will also hopefully limit the stalling tactics of the defence because their client is now siting in prison awaiting a decision for extradition.
